Pantry Snap Local-first food tracking
Scan, track, use it in time.

Put groceries away without forgetting what expires first.

Scan a barcode or pick from a built-in USDA storage guide, and Pantry Snap estimates the expiration date, saves everything locally on your iPhone or iPad, and reminds you before food goes bad.

Scan a barcode

Point the camera at a product barcode and Pantry Snap fills in the name and category from a built-in lookup — entirely on your device, with no internet.

Estimate the date

A bundled USDA FoodKeeper guide covers 400+ foods. Pick an item to estimate when it expires, or snap the stamp and let on-device OCR read it. You can always edit it.

Use it in time

Sort by category and your own storage locations, get a reminder before each item expires, see "Expiring Soon" widgets, and watch the money you keep out of the trash.

Built for speed, not account setup.

Pantry Snap is local-first. It does not require sign-in, does not upload pantry data to a Pantry Snap server, and stores compact photos directly on the device.

That makes it fast while you are standing in the kitchen and keeps the app simple enough to trust.

Scan or pick

2
